Job overview

Headteacher (Designate) in Bray, Maidenhead

Braywick Court School is a proposed 4-11 free school which plans to open on the site of the former Winbury Preparatory School in September 2014. We are looking for an inspirational Headteacher to guide the project in pre-opening and beyond to ensure that the school achieves excellence from day one.

A non-fee paying, non-selective, non-denominational, co-educational school, Braywick Court School will welcome children of all abilities from all backgrounds. It is the result of a ground-breaking joint venture between Bellevue Schools Group, operator of nine outstanding preparatory schools and Place Group, a market-leading education and school services company.

An experienced senior leader in the Primary or Preparatory phase, you will have a strong track record in leadership and core learning. Capable of interpreting, developing and implementing the Proposers' education vision, your excellent communications skills will be vital in promoting the school to the community, including a large number of parents who have already registered their interest in a place for their child(ren).

While you will benefit from the support of high-level expertise within the Proposer group, you will be expected to build an outstanding team of professionals to deliver the vision and as such, a keen eye for talent and well-developed personal networks would be advantageous. Furthermore, you will need to build collaborative relationships with other local schools, the local authority and the wider community and as such, will be politically aware, with relevant personal attributes including gravitas, influence and creativity.

In return, you will get that rarest of opportunities: the chance to shape a school from day one of its existence and ensure that every element is optimised to deliver outstanding teaching and learning. Furthermore, you will receive unparalleled access to support and to career advancement through the two parent organisations.

To arrange an informal discussion, please email: careers@braywickcourtschool.co.uk.

Closing date for applications: 6pm Monday October 28th 2013.
Interview date: Week starting Monday November 11th 2013.
